A
Cats, dogs, fish and rabbits are some pets. Keeping chickens at home is also becoming more popular. Having some chickens in your garden can be great fun and you can have eggs most days.
You need to have space in your garden to keep chickens in a safe building called a coop(鸡笼). Chickens will sleep, feed and lay eggs in it. The coop also keeps them from foxes or other danger, so always close the door carefully at night. To keep chickens from the wind and the sun, put the coop in a right position.
Beside the coop, you should make an enclosed(封闭的) place called a run (饲养场), for them to exercise. Letting chickens exercise during the day keeps them happy and healthy. You should feed chickens, give them fresh water and check them each day. It is wrong to feed chickens with junk food.
Feeding chickens the food with sand helps them give eggs with hard shells(壳). Clean chicken poo(粪) often to keep them in good health. A hen will not lay an egg every day, but if you have space for three or four then you can get enough eggs for your family.
根据语篇内容，判断下列句子正误，正确的在答题卡上将“T”涂黑，错误的在答题卡上将“F”涂黑。

China is a country with a great history. Let us see some of the greatest ancient mysteries (神秘事物) in China.
Ancient City Under Fuxian Lake Fuxian Lake is the third largest lake in Yunnan. In 2001, a research team discovered a stonework under the lake, covering an area of nearly 2.4 to 2.7 square kilometres. Researchers said that the stonework was 1,750 years old. It’s believed that it was the remains (遗迹) of the ancient Dian Kingdom which mysteriously disappeared after 86 BC.
Mystery of the Huashan Caves(洞穴) The Huashan Caves are near Huangshan in Anhui. They are from 10 to 20 metres in height. 36 caves were found among the hills. The walls and stone stairs show that men dug the caves and they have a history of over 1,700 years. As no historical records tell what those caves were used for, the reason for creating those caves remains a mystery.
Ancient World Under the Taklamakan Desert(沙漠) The Taklamakan desert is the largest desert in China. Ancient people believed that once you entered the desert, there was no getting out of it. But over the years, researchers have begun to discover some of the secrets that have been hidden in this mysterious area. Remains of houses and the ancient city of Loulan were found under the sand. In the late 1980s, several mummies(木乃伊) were also discovered there.

Many people would try very hard to run just one marathon. They would need months of training to get into shape to last the 42.195-km distance. However, marathons are no problem for Australian runner Erchana Murray-Bartlett. She achieved her goal of running 150 marathons in 150 days.
The 32-year-old ran 6,329 km from the northernmost part of Queensland to the southern city of Melbourne. Her five-month coast-to-coast run set a new world record. It’s the most consecutive(连贯的) daily marathons ever run by a woman. She broke the last record of finishing running 106 marathons in 106 days.
Ms Murray-Bartlett is a professional runner. In 2021, she missed the Tokyo Olympics, so she set her sights on a record-breaking challenge. She started her challenge to raise people’s awareness of the extinction crisis(灭绝危机) in Australia. Australia is rich in biodiversity(生物多样性), but many kinds of animals and plants are dying out in her country. Her run raised $70,000 for the Wilderness Society to protect those animals and plants. She said it was a really hard five months, but she knew she could do it.
She said, “Even though sometimes I am tired, I thought, ‘No, I can go one more kilometer’ or ‘No, I can go 500 more meters’. If we keep connecting tiny goals together, we can make it.”
This is a lesson for us all.

①A growing number of people are using ChatGPT, an AI(人工智能) program, to create books for sale. Although sales have been slow so far, human writers are worried that ChatGPT-created books might hurt the writing and publishing(出版) industry.
②Brett Schickler is a salesman in New York. Until recently, he never imagined he could be an author. But after learning about the ChatGPT AI program, Schickler found that he had a good chance.
③Using the AI software, Schickler created his first book, a 30-page children’s e-book, in a few hours. He sold it online and made less than $ 100. While that may not sound like much, it is enough to make him want to create other books using the software.
④“I could see people making a whole career(职业) out of this,” said Schickler.
⑤There were over 200 e-books in Amazon’s Kindle store by mid-February that say ChatGPT is a writer or co-writer. And the number is rising daily. But because of the nature(性质) of ChatGPT and the fact that many writers didn’t admit that they had used it, it’s nearly impossible to exactly know how many e-books may have been written by AI.
⑥Some professional writers are becoming worried about the effects that ChatGPT could have on the book publishing industry. Mary Rasenberger is the director of the Authors Guild, a writer’s group. She said, “This is something we really need to be worried about—these books will flood the market and a lot of authors are going to be out of work.”

A man was walking through the woods with his axe(斧头) when a small tree called to him. It said, “Hello friend. Can you cut 76 those bigger trees They’re blocking the sun. It is so crowded here 77 I have no room to spread my roots. I can’t feel the wind.”
The little tree held out 78 tiny leaves. It looked so sad. It continued, “If those trees were gone, I’d be able to grow. A year from now, I’d be the biggest tree here. But for now, I’m just a small tree.”
The man thought for a while and 79 . He walked over to the bigger trees and started cutting them down. Soon, he cleared lots of space around the small tree. Now it would be able to feel the sun and wind. It would grow bigger and 80 the biggest tree in that area.
But something else happened instead. The sun’s heat came first. The small tree wasn’t used to so much 81 . It started to burn. Strong wind and 82 rain came—without the bigger trees to protect it, the small tree was hit by the storm. Soon, the tree was nearly 83 .
“You’ve been quite foolish,” said a snake that saw 84 had happened. “You brought this on yourself. If you’d left the bigger trees alone, the sun and storm wouldn’t have hurt you so 85 .

I interviewed 19-year-old pop singer Candy yesterday. Candy told me that she used to be shy and her mother asked her to start singing to deal with the problem. As she got better, she dared to sing in front of her class, and then for the whole school. Now she is not shy any more and loves singing in front of crowds.
I asked Candy how life was different after she became famous. She explained that there were many good things, like being able to travel and meeting new people all the time. However, too much attention can also be a bad thing. She always had to worry about how she should appear in public, and had to be very careful about what she said or did. Hanging out with friends is almost impossible for her now. That means she has to give up normal life.
People usually cannot imagine how difficult the road to success is. But Candy fights on and wants to become a talented singer in the future.
